What's Wrong at Connie's Beauty Shop? A Shortage of Poker-Playing Dogs.

For Connie, a Friend Indeed

 

There are no pictures of poker-playing dogs!

The health certificates make for dull reading

And last month’s issue of Texas Monthly

Has not the old cache’ of Field and Stream

 

There are no pictures of poker-playing dogs!

Among the snaps of Baby’s First Haircut

Children and grandchildren in cute little frames

And lovely young girls all styled for the prom

 

There are flowers and scents and catalogues

 

But –

 

There are no pictures of poker-playing dogs!

 

                                                           Woof!
